Home Remedies

I am a huge fan of home remedies, as long as they really work. Here are the most recent home remedies that I have tried and found effective.

Dry Skin
Take 4 Cups of Old Fashioned Oats and place then in a nylon stocking and tie off the end. Fill your bath tub with warm water and drop the oatmeal sachet into the water, let sit 10-15 minutes or until water is a milky color, now your bath is ready! Soak as long as you want, however, do not rinse off when done. Your skin will have a somewhat grainy feel. One pair of nylons will get you two soaks.


Sour Stomach/Indigestion
1 Cup 7up or Sprite Soda, add in a dash of salt, drink the whole thing! I found this to be more effective than Tums and Mylanta type products, and honestly it doesn't taste horrible.
